Fog light malfunction

I removed the intake resonator on my 07 and now the driver's side fog lamp wont activate. I tried the bulb on the passenger side and it worked just fine.

Are there multiple fuses for each side or did I manage to damage the harness during the res removal?

Just 1 fuse for both. If your passenger side is lighting up, then you damaged the harness

It has to be the wire, I didn't pull the bumper, though there could've been stress to it during the initial removal.

I will check the connections and see if there are any obviously loose wires. What should I do in that situation? Is it a matter of reseating the wire and soldering or am I gonna have to replace it?

you're asking us how to fix a wire when you arent even sure which part is damaged lol.

honestly though oem harnesses are pretty strong you have to pull really hard to damage it. check with a multimeter first if its getting any power.

Shit, make sure it's plugged in before you get to deep into it.
